Single 8 Core Cable Feeding Two Detectors

Did a takeover years ago that had Racal detectors all wired in 16 core, extra 4 colours were stripey on white, and it wasn't phone cable.

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

I went to a job yesterday service by a company with three letters. They have a G2-44 and a Fox PIR!! Now who is going to admit being old enough to remember the Fox !

If it works?

Plenty of Racal's, pad's and foil knocking about on maintenance here.

Talking of blast from the past check out this playlist...

ahh, bit of wood in the way there.

I have rounded off my fair share of terminal screwdrivers while cutting a little channel into the ceiling, slotting the cable in and filling in...

Was in an 80s new build finishing off today, started Tuesday and there was the remains of an old 2 zone type key system but nothing worth reusing cable wise, redone from scratch.

 

Lol at them bashing multiple holes with a hammer for mains from roof until they worked out where the joist was. Tiny ceiling so not visible without ladder and shelving removed.

A now blunt 4.5mm HSS bit makes a tidy job of that if I need to.

Nah the H box was too level  to be one of yours...

I think its mad when just one core is used for a zone and all the cores are accounted for with power and all the zones using 1 core.

 

its nice and tidy at the panel end very few cables don't get me wrong but it isn't good when things start going wrong with the system.
